Thanks but it wasn't quite complete.  This morning I've rebuild the
whole source tree from scratch and suddenly ranlib didn't work anymore
with this version.  I figured out that I missed several off_t and fpos_t
type clashes in newlib :-(

I've just posted the patch to newlib (Subject: "[PATCH] Avoid more
problems with type clashes").  Everybody who wants to build Cygwin
from CVS should apply this patch as long as it's not approved and
commited.

Sorry 'bout that,
Corinna
